Single Case Study Approach

Analytics training courses usually have disconnected examples from topic to topic.  This course is built on one continuous case study – The Sub-Optimal Hotel (SOHO).  While the name is fake, the data is very real.  You will learn how to go from raw, transaction level data to automated decision model from beginning to end, as if you were in an actual consulting assignment.

No programming or mathematics background required.

Who should take this course?

Financial Analysts | Accountants | Auditors | Business Analysts | Revenue Planners
Budget Managers | Financial Planners | Tax Preparers

Regardless of your function, this course will take your career to the next level.

 Financial/Business Analyst

Forecasting, Budgeting, and Analysis are being transformed by the need to explain trends using bottom-up, multi-dimensional reasoning.  This course will teach you how to build models that incorporate real-time transactions data so that you can go from a simplified representation of the business cycle to a robust, algorithmic view of profit flows that will impress the most cynical stakeholder.

 Accountant/Auditor/CPA

While pro-forma statements are still the report of record for external financial audits, they have all but been completely discarded as a source of internal business insights in this predictive analytics age.  The accounting and auditing profession is now requiring a quantum leap in analytics skills. Mastering the process of rolling up raw, transaction data into G/L level summaries and digging through the data in the opposite direction to find patterns is the focus of this course.

 Tax Accounting/Bookkeeper

You, better than anyone, know how to work with detailed data. This course will help you leverage that knowledge by applying it to analytics,  allowing you to open up a world of opportunity with new and existing clients. By 2018, the shortage of people with analytic and data interpretation skills will reach almost a million.  The global business market is hungry for your background combined with a solid analytics skill set. Be the Exception!
